Being British I would say the SAS (oh and everyone is going to say the one that comes from their country) but Spetsnaz are bloody monsters.
I picked British SAS from the poll options (somehow glossed over 'other'), because out of the listed they probably have the best reputation.
However, as other people have mentioned, it really depends on what you want.
Personal preference though; the SASR (i.e. Aussie SAS) has from what I understand a very good reputation, as do the NZ SAS. The Ghurkhas are also stupidly badass.

"Most elite" isn't really the right way to describe what I think you're asking. Going by toughness of selection processes, then the SAS is right up there, but there's not a lot to choose between them and other highly selective forces like SBS, SEALs, and so on.
In terms of all-round kickass fighting effectiveness though, I would pick the Royal Marines. They tackle a far wider-ranging number of tasks than all of the well-known "special forces", functioning both as a special force and a conventional light infantry brigade. Most of the missions undertaken by SAS (and their ilk) emphasise flight over fight (or shoot-and-scoot, as they call it).
The Royal Marines are the real heavy-hitters in this group. Their training is the longest and toughest in the world and they come with the equipment and expertise required to achieve strategic goals rather than the small scale (if highly valuable and challenging) objectives of traditional special forces.

Anon, man! Those guys can fuck your shit up without getting up from their computer. Some serious stealth attack shit.
Easy poll... Delta first, SEALS behind them. They can take anyone out, anywhere, if given the go ahead.
Wow, that was intriguing, what's it from?Spookimitsu said:

Any American group. Doesn't matter which. We have the best weapons, the best hardware, the best logistics. Name it, America does it best when it comes to fighting.
That said, it hardly matters. Everyone is just going to vote for their own nation anyway.
